2015 Tire Rack SCCA Match Tour Rules

Next year will mark the third year of the Tire Rack SCCA Match Tour format. The first year’s format was completely different from the 2014 version.

2015 SEDIV Solo Development Coordinator: Scott Dobler II

What have I gotten myself into? Yes, I did it… I took over as the Southeast Division Solo Development Coordinator (AKA Solo Steward) officially for the beginning of the 2014 season.

Gwen Habenicht, of Bahama, North Carolina, said that the Solo Triad Award was the result of a season-long goal meant to help her focus on performing well in competition. “At the beginning of 2014 Jim [Feinberg] suggested that I set a goal for myself for the year,” Habenicht said. “Achieving that goal would give me […]

2014 SCCA Solo Triad Award Winners: Eric Peterson

Eric Peterson, of Hillsborough, North Carolina, had always loved cars, but wasn’t sure how to transform that into something greater.
